FlipFlop Cala Romántica

Just returned from the hotel after spending a few days out here. Overall, we were really impressed with the hotel and what it offers. The hotel is right on the beach and has restaurants, a bar and a place you can book boat trips. The hotel itself has a shop, a main restaurant and snack area next to the pools so everything you need is there. If you wanted to get out and explore, a bus stop is nearby to explore Porto cristo or anywhere else you'd like to go if you have time. The food was great with a variety each day. They do have some signs next to the food for allergies/intolerances but not on all so be wary and check with staff if you have any. It meant for me I couldn't really have any sweet treats as they all had milk in. They have activities around the pool and opposite the pool area (other side of road) we saw some tortoises! So look out for them. The only thing that we were disappointed in was our room. It was quite small and my bed was very hard, I think it was actually broken. The bathroom was a good size but we found lots of insects when we entered our room so make sure your room is fully cleaned. There isn't a fridge in the room we had, and I'd recommended taking an hairdryer as the one there wasn't good. Some of the other rooms did look really nice so I felt we got a little unlucky with our room. The staff are all very friendly, with the exception of one female receptionist who was quite rude and not very helpful. She failed to inform us, even when we asked, that you need to book a time slot for another room to use for showers if you check out of your hotel room but your transfer isn't until the afternoon/evening. So make sure you do that so you have a chance to freshen up before you leave. Ruben at reception was very helpful and patient with everyone and their queries. I'd definitely return though to this hotel and location and we had lovely weather.

We really enjoyed our trip to flip flop Romantica. The reviews on here really put me off, but the hotel is so clean, the food was lovely, the pool clean and good amount of entertainment for my daughter, the beach is absolutely stunning. The rooms are individual complex style, so although it’s spread out (a bit of walking), we really liked the privacy and quietness that came with the style of hotel.

Firstly, I know there have been some negative reviews on this hotel and not going to lie, I didn’t know what to expect after reading them. Well I have to say, I don’t know what people expect from a 3 star resort but I can honestly say it was the most pleasant 5 days away that I have spent. I went away with my mum and we just wanted a few days to switch off and this is what this resort offers. The room was cleaned, fresh towels daily, very friendly staff and the food was great! There is also a shop on sight for food, gifts, etc which was v handy as there isn’t much in the area. The location is right on the beautiful Cala Romantica and it was great being able to walk onto the beach from the hotel. The only thing I would say is if you had mobility issues, it might be a struggle as the little bungalows go from 1 to 600, with 1 being closest to the reception and restaurant. We were lucky as we were at no 48 and we were close to the pool and snack bar. If you were to book and have mobility issues, I would contact the hotel firstly and see if they could put you in a closer location bungalow. They also have an onsite free taxi service, who will take you from the reception to your room. Had the best stay and would highly recommend to anyone!

We arrived late at night after almost 2 hr transfer, we were last drop off with 8 others before us, tired hungry, staff at reception opened restaurant and we were able to eat,we where taken to our accommodation by car,accommodation a bit dated but clean, plenty hot water,was cold at night but it was early in season, in daylight we were pleasantly surprised, woodland surroundings are beautiful, the beach was right outside main restaurant complex was lovely, sheltered safe to swim,however is a private beach and sunbeds were 15 euro for day,30 euro per day a bit much, but there are plenty of sunbeds at pool area,food and drinks and entertainment, staff all helpful and friendly, we took excursion to Caves of Drac,don't book with hotel, you can get local bus outside 3 Euro,15 min journey and pay at Caves 17 Euro,as opposed to 50 Euro charge if you book with hotel, Porto Cristo is a short 15 min walk from.Caves,it's pretty with a harbour, not crowde,visited Sunday Market. Food was good as we went all inclusive, local booze but plenty of it, myself and my granddaughter enjoyed our stay,I would visit again ,transfer back to airport was only 1 hour,we didn't have as many pick ups .

We booked a last minute getaway on a budget and we were very happy with our all inclusive deal. Had we paid full price, it might have put a different slant on it. The hotel is in a stunning location, right next to a beautiful beach. Rooms are set on a hill in small clusters that feel more like chalets. They’re nestled into the woodland and feel quite private. However, they are quite tired but ours was clean on arrival and we had a huge terrace, so we forgave that. Guests who have mobility issues should definitely mention it when they book. There is a shuttle service but you might have to wait a bit at busy times. If you’re situated at the top of the hill, it’s a challenging walk with lots of steps. The main building contained the reception, shop, bar and entertainment area, main restaurant and large outside terrace seating area overlooking the beach. It felt a bit like a holiday camp to be honest and the evening entertainment was similar. The pool area is in between the main building and rooms and was really nice. The larger pool was frequented by families and the smaller one, mainly adults. There were plenty of beds and had a covered restaurant and separate bar area. We really enjoyed our time here. The staff were super friendly and very polite and there was the usual poolside entertainment at both pools. What let this hotel down was the food and a few minor things that could be addressed easily…. If you do fancy a break from the disappointing selection, there’s a fantastic restaurant across the beach. And… if you’re a tea drinker, take your own! PS: head straight to the gate once through security at the airport. There is a second passport control that takes a long time to get though if you have kids

Hotel was well kept and friendly staff. We encountered an issue with our neighbour and the staff were caring and resolved our issue immediately. Me and my partner had an amazing time. Would recommend to everyone! Location was fantastic, beach is top tier. Good entertainment. A holiday to remember!

Fantastic hotel, very friendly and helpful staff. Rooms a bit dated but clean. Great choice of delicious food served at the main restaurant and at the pool restaurant wonderful team of animators make sure that there is always something to do during the day and in the evening. we had an amazing family quality time there!!!

Currently here , we were sceptical as there’s a fair few negative reviews but need not have worried ,beautiful setting , really clean everywhere , pool area beautiful , food and drink very acceptable , remember it’s only rated a 3 star so don’t come here expecting 5 star , yes rooms are little dated but again all very clean , all in all very happy 🙏

Beautifully situated hotel overlooking and on a stunning beach/cove. Staff friendly, clean hotel, food nice, snack bar by the pool fab. I don't know what people are moaning about for a 3 star it was lovely and well worth the money. The rooms do need a little updating as far as decor goes but you only spend a short period of time there. The entertainment was also good. We would definately come back!!!!
